Fascinating and fun

Tiny Shalhoub is a natural storyteller! I enjoyed the answers he gave, which were very well chosen by the interviewer. However, I felt the interviewer spoke over and interrupted Tony too much. I'm guilty of that conversational style sometimes, but this wasn't just a private conversation; it was an interview. I learned as much about the interviewer and her family as we heard about Tony's life. That's not really supposed to be how an interview works. But I like that the interviewer made Tony at ease in the conversation and he was willing to share how he felt about his work and family. Overall, I give this 4 of 5 stars, simply because the necessary stuff was covered, some "little known facts" seemed to come out, and the subject seemed happy with the outcome, therefore I am too.
